2005 BMW E46 M3 Competition

M3-ADDICT · 04-26-2008, 10:28 PM

After eight years of dreaming, the day has finally come. My BMW E46 M3 was delivered to me and it was one of the best days of my life. It has every single option that was offered with only 17K miles on her.

Thank you. I also have been in love with the aggressive look for years. I could had leased the new E92 M3 for the same payments of my current car, but I just had to enjoy the E46 for a little while before making the transition to the new beast.

Grats! e46 is still killer!

Park2670 · 04-26-2008, 11:15 PM

How come the wheels dont look like the oem ZCP wheels? Am I missing something? They look like replicas since they dont have the concavity like these pictures..

Correct, they are replicas from Miro. The previous owner had ruined the factory ZCP wheels by painting them all black.

He put a brand new set of these Miros plus fresh rubber on them. I might buy a set of OEMs, but Miro replicas are the closest to the OEM Ones and it hasn't bothered me much. In motion you can't even tell.

Park2670 · 04-26-2008, 11:28 PM

Oh cool, I stared for a good long time then decided to ask. Still a killer looking car

M3-ADDICT · 04-26-2008, 11:34 PM

Thanks boss

I don't want to sound like the pushy one, but this is the E92 forum...
Might be better suited to post pics in the E46 forums.

I posted under M3 Photos/Video/Media Gallery. It doesn't say E92M3 Photos/Video/Media Gallery.

Besides it looks like people with E92 already liked the pictures, so I guess it's fine. It's like me telling you not to join the forum at all because you drive a normal 3 series from 2003 you know.

Saw your gorgeous car on BimmerForums man. I was the one that inquired about the front license plate. Car is looking sexy man

Enjoy her for me.

P.S just noticed you are 22, damn over achievers I hate you lol. I'm 21, I better be able to get into a E92 M3 or E60 M6 in a year or I'm going to be depressed rofl. Congradulations on your success driving a 90K car at age 22

ilovejordanz · 04-27-2008, 12:16 AM
